Why Modern-Day Parenting Is in Crisis

"5 Reasons Modern-Day Parenting Is in Crisis, According to a British Nanny" is an article written by Emma Jenner that I've just recently read which identifies 5 reasons why modern-day parents could be raising children who might grow up as self-centered, spoiled, selfish, and rude adults. The five reasons as described by the author are:

1. We always want to please our children. Parents especially us, moms, always want to please our children, we always want to give what they want.
2. We don't discipline our children. The author is saying that children nowadays lack discipline because we do not do our part to discipline them.
3. People in the community don't care as much anymore.
4. We are teaching kids not to be patient.
5. Some parents forget that they have their own needs to meet, too.

They were born with reproductive organs that are different from those of a boy and girl thus making it difficulty to say whether it is a boy or a girl. This condition is called typical genitalia, a congenital birth defect of the sex organs making it difficult to identify whether a child is a girl or a boy. It is characterized by the baby having both testicles and vulva. It is also characterized by a baby girl having a large clitoris like a penis and a baby boy having testicles that have not properly descended. Causes of atypical genitalia: - hormonal imbalance - variations in genetics - fetal tissues that have not properly formed into normal genitals Treatment of atypical genitalia - surgery is done to either add or remove the reproductive organ that is suited or not suited to the child'...
